Product Description

By using a Philips Sonicare toothbrush will give you cleaner and fresher teeth, healthier gums, and much improved overall oral health. Sonicare toothbrushes offer several features to make brushing your teeth simpler and far more effective than other leading brands of electric toothbrush. This is due to the fact a Philips Sonicare toothbrush has a patented cleansing action which removes plaque from below the gum line and in-between teeth. This method of cleaning your teeth is proven to remove harsh stubborn stains (such as those from nicotine and coffee) and additionally to whiten your teeth by a number of shades in just two weeks of use.

 

Sonicare is the only Sonic powered toothbrush with a long and slim angled neck, specially designed bristles and high speed brush head and bristle speed for much improved plaque removal in the difficult to reach areas of the mouth. Sonicare's unique dynamic cleaning method gently but effectively cleans deep between teeth and below gumline for a brushing experience akin to no other powered toothbrush. A Philips Sonicare toothbrush arrives in the box with handy colour coded replacement heads.

 

The Philips Sonicare toothbrush offers an abundance of features to ensure your dental teeth hygiene routine is easier and more effective than ever before. The presense of a built-in timer to remind you when you have been brushing for 2 minutes is a good example of just one of the benefits. The electric toothbrush also massages your gums thereby stimulating blood circulation in and around the mouth area which helps to dislodge plaque located along the gum line. An interesting point to remember with a Philips Sonicare Toothbrush is the bristle tips at a rate of  31,000 brush revolutions each minute, meaning a very clean and thorough clean every time.

 

Philips Sonicare toothbrush heads will provide you with outstanding cleaning capabilities but do remember to replace the tooth brush heads at least every six months. Finally, Sonicare toothbrushes are now clinically verified to help reduce the instances of gingivitis, helping to significantly improve your oral health routine.

Excellent toothbrush - a must need.

Reviewer: Jonathan Ho, Fairfax, VA United States
I've been using the Sonicare toothbrushes since they came out. My father is a dentist and we got some samples to try out. I had tried the Oral-B rotary style brushes and I feel that the sonicare is superior and the brush heads seem to last longer. Plus, with rotary there is more friction which, if you overbrush, can wear down your enamel and possibly hurt your gums (many people do not know that you can overbrush).

I've taken the sonicare on travel many times for weeks on end and the battery life is impressive.

Some people find it difficult to pay close to $100 for a toothbrush and then having to buy replacement brush heads at $10 a piece every 6 months.

I don't think you can afford not to use a sonicare. Your dentist will definitely be able to tell a difference.

As always, there is no substitute for flossing. When they come out with one, someone will become a multi-millionaire.
Teeth feel so clean you'd think you just came from the dentist

Only without the scraping! My teeth feel so smooth and clean, just like they'd been cleaned by the dentist. I was an agressive brusher before, but this is amazing. My gums even feel so much stronger now. I've noticed my teeth look whiter now than they ever have as well. I've noticed this toothbrush on the Friday sale, several different weeks. If you're looking to buy, I highly recommend doing it on a Friday, check out the Friday sale.
Vibrations of death for that icky tartar!

I'm lucky to have great teeth. I know this cause I've seen some snaggle tooth people out there. Every time I go to the dentist I get the same thing said to me at the end of the actual dentist inspection, "You have great looking teeth Mr. Cole. But you don't floss do you?" I hate when he asks me that cause I know that he knows that I don't. That's why my gums are inflamed usually (not bad or anything). And that's why you see blood on that dang dental floss there buddy.

Well last year I bought this sonicare cause I was curious how good this thing actually was. And I'm telling ya, it really does make your mouth feel a heck of a lot cleaner than you are used to. I can reach the back of my teeth easily with this. I also can brush my tongue and the roof of my mouth with this with no worries (well except for my gag reflex, but that's not the brushes fault... hehe).

A year went by with me using this and I had my annual check up again. Of course I'm brushing my shoulder off cause I'm thinkin I'm hot stuff with my perfect teeth (kiidddinngg...sooorrttaaa), but still I'm expecting to hear that same line. After all the praise, the doc starts to get up and I say to him, "Uh? No flossing?". He says to me that I don't need it and it looks like I floss all the time to him.

CHA CHING!

The brush automatically paid itself off without a doubt. I did not floss one time that whole year. The only difference between those two visits was the toothbrush. Man I love this thing! I would highly recommend spending a few extra bucks on this (ok more than a few... it's more like 70 bucks I think).

When you first start using it though it's a pretty weird experience. If you don't do it right it feels sorta like taking a glass beer bottle (or coke bottle for you kids out there) and knocking it around on your teeth... hehe. Trust me when I say you'll learn quickly how to brush correctly with this... lol. Also make sure you keep the toothbrush in your mouth. I've learned not to take it out and try to talk to someone. Cause all I did was take it out and then there was toothpaste flinging left and right like a mist machine on crack.

One more cool thing is that I haven't put it on it's charger in almost 2 and a half months and it's still charged and vibrates just like it had been taken off the charger. So in case you got a quick trip to go on, you can just pack it in it's little plastic carrying case and it's good to go.

Don't second guess getting one of these. Trust me when I say you wont regret it.
Best value out there

Reviewer: mata,
I had an old-school sonicare that I loved. Even my dentist/hygenist noticed a huge difference once I started using the sonicare, my teeth were whiter and she found she did less scrapping and cleaning than her other patients. When the battery died after 4 yrs, there was no question that I was getting another one. These new ones are great, they are more powerful than my old brush, and the smaller angled brush head actually seems to work better.

I picked the e5500 over the e7300 for several reasons. Both have the smartimer and quadpacer features that I depend on, and for the extra $10, you only get a recharge indicator on the e7300. I don't need that, since I recharge it every couple of days, and I appreciate the extra brush head that comes with the e5500.

FYI, if you've never owned a sonicare before, it takes a while to get used to, but you do get used to it. And you have to unscrew the brush from the base and clean both parts regularly (I do about once every week).
Truly clean teeth

Why did I wait so long to buy one of these?? Definitely cleaner teeth with this toothbrush. I have always had a hard time getting to my back molars before this toothbrush. The head on this is smaller than a standard toothbrush, but being automated, you dont have to jam it against the back of your cheekbone to try to get to your rear molars. Came with a spare toothbrush head. I admit that I drink alot of coffee and use tobacco products, and I have noticed significant whiter and cleaner teeth with the same toothpaste.
